can a water temp gauge go here?
Just wondering if I could put the sender unit for a water temp gauge where the stock place you fill water at? You know that wire that is going in there right now? can I take that one out and put another on in? Also would anyone happen to know if its 3/4 pt or what? Thanks.

are you talking about the thermosensor on the back of the waterpump?
If so then the guys here say don't remove it since it tells the ECU the temp.
I have seen on some FC site a guy which used the stock fill point/cap thing and fabbed a plate with a sensor in it.
I thought it was pretty slick. It's after the Tstat but should still get a good reading.
I might do this once I get all my small leaks and stuff fixed. I have an Autometer gauge sitting in my car waiting.

Are you guys saying to put the sending unit where the wire on top of the radiator is now or the two wires on bottom right side of the radiator?

Wait a minute I thought that was the oil sending unit under the oil filter? That would only make sence. Or are you saying that it is a sending unit for both oil temp and water temp? That would kinda make sence. I have an after market oil pressure and oil temp gauge that both have senders from one of those oil pedestles from fc3.org so I don't even use that sending unit any more, its just sitting there. I guess I could use that one, that would make sence. Now do you know what size the threading is in that sending unit? 1/4 pt? etc...
Thanks.
Thanks.

I installed my Koyo recently. I also installed a water temp sensor. The last picture shows where it is, and I explain it in the thread. It works pretty well.
